FOOD

Boring Friday night with not-so-boring food courtesy of Lusso at Greenbelt 5.
The seating inside was full but a spot opened up right on time for us.







Pretty interiors and well-clothed and attentive staff

The requisite iced tea
D: This had a minty after taste. It reminded me of the iced tea of Cibo, flavorful and not too sweet.
P: A tad too pricey for the amount and the taste though.

Asiago french fries with truffle salt
D: I loved the generously-sized cut of these fries. It doesn't look so flavorful but the melted butter and cheese really adds a nice kick to it.
P: I like that the fries were crisp on the outside and soft inside. The truffle taste permeated throughout.

Lusso Demi-Pound foie gras burger
(with greens, ordinary fries, and cheese sauce on the side)

P: Possibly one of the best burgers in town. The beef is good and juicy on its own but adding in the foie gras gives it an overload of richness. It's super succulent and I can't stop raving about it. It's served in a kaiser roll as opposed to a regular bun and gives it a nice crunch. Eat this quickly before it goes cold though.

Roasted lamb on sour dough bread with zucchini sticks and strawberry jam
(side of greens and potato crisps)

I really love the jam paired with the lamb. I was dying to peel off the zucchini sticks but there were just too many to bother with. I didn't really notice them though, which is a good thing. The greens are actually yummy too! The dressing is nice and light. Oh and I love sour dough but it's a little difficult to eat with poise.

FASHION

HM button down, Zara jeans and shoes
P: I like the collar and the color and the lightness of the fabric of this shirt. So easy to dress up or down.

SM white batwing top, thrifted neon floral skorts, Gojane heels, Dolce Vita bag, HM earrings

D: I love these skorts that I got from a thrift shop! They remind me of the stuff I used to wear as a child. They're high-waisted and I wanted to pair them with a aqua leotard but figured that wasn't a good idea for a big dinner and a full tummy. Check out the funky Indian dude embroidered on the pocket! The stamped leather bracelets in pretty colors are a gift from P's mom.
